    Guida adeguata, troppa fretta per la a moltitudine di persone, un commento sugli affreschi sarebbe stato gradito ma era un corri corri che non ha permesso di apprezzarne la bellezza ed il valore

    Ever wonder how such architectural structures were built during the Renaissance? Step right into Brunelleschi’s Dome in Florence, Italy. This tour will allow you to avoid long queues and skip the line and has an expert guide who will share insights about the Dome and keep you company, in a small group. This massive cupola, part of the Florence Cathedral, covers nearly 150 feet across an octagonal floor plan. It is 180 feet above the ground and seems to defy all the odds and gravity too!

    This massive dome isn’t just impressive in appearance or size but also its construction. Climb 463 steps, to the top of Fillipo Brunelleschi’s masterpiece and explore the treasures hidden inside the cathedral on your journey. Spot Zuccari and Vascaris’ Last Judgement and applaud one of the most exquisite stained glass windows in Italy. Appreciate the works of Renaissance art and make your way to the top for a breathtaking view of the city of Florence, from the Cathedral’s Dome terrace.

    Important Information

    • Brunelleschi’s dome has a strict dress code. Shoulders and knees must be covered.
